Andrews Avenue Room 212 Fort Lauderdale, Florida Quotation No.: E Q1 Date: 12/2/2011 Purchasing Agent: Marie Williams Phone number: Requisition No. RQS SH Company Name: (Please Print) Signature: In order to provide commodities to Broward County under this solicitation, a firm must meet the standard of a regular dealer, provide a commercially useful function, and have a continuous operating presence in Broward County. Brokers, defined as consistent with industry practice for a particular contracting opportunity, are not considered to provide a commercially useful function, and will be rejected as not responsive. For purposes of this solicitation, the following terms and their definitions are applicable: (a) A broker is a person or entity that fills orders by purchasing or receiving supplies from a third party supplier rather than out of its own existing inventory, and provides no commercially useful service other than acting as a conduit between his or her supplier and his or her customers. (b) Commercially Useful Function - A business is considered to perform a commercially useful business function when it is responsible for execution of a distinct element of work of a contract and carries out its responsibilities under that contract by performing, managing and supervising the work performed. Businesses who merely act as a conduit do not perform a commercially useful business function and will not be eligible. In determining whether a business performs a commercially useful business function, consideration will include, but not be limited to: whether the business adds a value to the product or service provided; whether the business has a distributorship arrangement with the manufacturer of goods supplied; whether the business takes possession of the product or service provided; whether the business warrants the product or service provided; whether the business maintains sufficient storage space to keep the product in inventory; whether the business maintains sufficient inventory to meet the requirements of its contracts; and whether the business provides the product or service to the public or other business other than a governmental agency. (c) Continuous Operating Presence - Continuous operating presence means a business entity with a current business tax receipt issued by Broward County, which has a physical business address located within the geographical limits of Broward County in an area zoned for the conduct of such business, and which has sufficient full-time employees in Broward County to perform all required work in connection with contracting opportunities covered by this contract. Firms may not use a County-owned site or County address alone to establish the required continuing operating presence in Broward County. (d) Regular Dealer (Commodities) - In order for a firm to be designated a regular dealer to supply a given commodity, a firm must be an established, regular business that engages, as its principal business and under its own name, in the purchase and sale or lease of the products in question. In addition, a regular dealer is a firm that owns, operates, or maintains a store, warehouse, or other establishment within Broward County in which the materials, supplies, articles or equipment of the general character described by the specifications and required under the contract are bought, kept in stock, and regularly sold or leased to the public in the usual course of business. One of the key considerations of being a regular, established dealer is the presence of an inventory of materials This is not an order, this is an inquiry, which implies no obligation on the part of Broward County Form (Rev. 09/28/2011)(Sheltered Mkt)

18 Page 14 of 26 VENDOR QUESTIONNAIRE (Continued) 10 LITIGATION HISTORY REQUIREMENT The County will consider a vendor's litigation history information in its review and determination of responsibility. All vendors are required to disclose to the County all "material" cases filed or resolved in the three (3) year period ending with the solicitation response due date, whether such cases were brought by or against the vendor, any parent or subsidiary of the vendor, or any predecessor organization. If the vendor is a joint venture, the information provided should encompass the joint venture (if it is not newly-formed for purposes of responding to the solicitation) and each of the entities forming the joint venture. For purpose of this disclosure requirement, a case includes lawsuits, administrative hearings and arbitrations. A case is considered to be "material" if it relates, in whole or in part, to any of the following: 1. A similar type of work that the vendor is seeking to perform for the County under the current solicitation; 2. An allegation of negligence, error or omissions, or malpractice against the vendor or any of its principals or agents who would be performing work under the current solicitation; 3. A vendor's default, termination, suspension, failure to perform, or improper performance in connection with any contract; 4. The financial condition of the vendor, including any bankruptcy petition (voluntary and involuntary); or 5. A criminal proceeding or hearing concerning business-related offenses in which the vendor or its principals (including officers) were/are defendants. Notwithstanding the descriptions listed in paragraphs 1 5 above, a case is not considered to be "material" if the claims raised in the case involve only garnishment, auto negligence, personal injury, or a proof of claim filed by the vendor. For each material case, the vendor is required to provide all information identified in the form attached as Attachment "A". A Vendor is also required to disclose to the County any and all case(s) that exist between the County and any of the vendor's subcontractors/subconsultants proposed to work on this project. Failure to disclose any material case, or to provide all requested information in connection with each such case, may result in the vendor being deemed non-responsive. Prior to making such determination, the vendor will have the ability to clarify the submittal and to explain why an undisclosed case is not material.
